The Old 30 der Hears the News with.
out Any show of Emotion.
WHITEHALL, N. Y, Aug. 25.-Judge Pot
ter has granted a stay in the Sharp case.
Judge Potter in granting stay said there
is reasonable doubt that the Judgment
reached in the court of oyer and terminer
should stand, and he orders stay in the
execution of such judgment until an appeal
shall be decided by the general term.
The news that stay had been granted was
first conveyed to Warden Heating of Ludlow
staeet Jail by two reporters. A minute or
two later messenger arrived at the jail with
message from W. Bourke Cochran to
Sharp confirming the news. Warden Heating
took the note to Sharp's room, where the
prisoner was lying in an invalid's chair.
He had passed a very restless night and
was feeling very unwell He mani
tested no emotion whatever as he read
the note, but gave it to his wife
without saying a word. Mrs. Sharp, how
ever. was overjoyed at the tidings, and could
scarcely restrain her feelings. Warden
Heating said that Sharp has appar-
emily lost all interest in
weaker from day to day, and is very sick
man although he tries to convince himself
that such is not the case. He has lost very
much flesh siuce his imprisonment, and to-
day does not weigh more than one hundred
and fifty pounds.
The appeal in the case will come before
Chief Justice Van Brunt and Judges Daniels
and Brady on the first Monday in October.
WEST END, Long Branch, Aug. 25.-
District Attorney MARITIME said to-
night that he had anticipated that
a stay would be granted in the Sharp case
Several days ago he applied to Governor Hill
asking him in case stay was granted to
convene an extraordinary session of the
general term, which would allow arguments
in the case to be heard. If Sharp's lawyers
ask that he be admitted to bail Mr.. MARITIME
says he will demand that bail be fixed at

WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.-John P. Hamlin,
the foreman of the Guiteau jury, referring to
the recent statement of ScoTille, Guiteau's
brother-in-law, that the wealthy foreman OF
the jury became penniless and four other
members of the jury had died and
another one was sent to the insane
asylum, says: "That is lies s am not pen
niless. On the contrary my business is in a
better condition than ever it was before My
health is perfect and am a very happy and
contented person. Only one member of the
jury has died, and that was kppor Tom Helm
1ein, who was half dead with consumption
when he went on the jury. One of
the jurors is in the insane asylum, but his
going there was not the result of his serving
on the Guiteau jury unless it was due to the
long confinement. Guiteau's curse upon the
heads of those who had to do with his con-
viction and hanging amounts to nothing"

PART u.-CHAPTER V
TRUCE WITH TUR MUrINEERS.

TRUCE WITH THB MUrISEERS
At first, not word passed between
the three men standing there by the
now useless wheel.
The place where the vessel had
grounded was so near 10 the low coast
of that part of the island that man
might easily have let himself down by
the bows and waded ashore. The water
astern was less than two fathoms, and
IL shoaled rapidly to the shore. The
wind had continued SO fresh that the
Roadway of the vessel drove her hard
onto the bottom when her course
was trcachcrously changed, and ut
least half her keel was fast in the clay.
She lay motionless, slightly careencd
over to the port side.
The sun was setting. In the brief
lull that followed this first stunning
blow of the mutincors, Captain Willis
anXiously swept the horizon with his
glass. The broad Bahama Channel
was before him. but the view was here
and there cut off by islands.
No sail was in sight.
We have said that Mt first no word
was spoken by the Captain, Crawford
or the mate. The scene described in
the last chapter Ind passed almost in
a flash; but its terrible meaning was
perfectly understood. 1t needed no
explanation from the mate to tell the
others that Purvis had been murdered
FOR the purpose of Disgusting the viper
whom the Captain had warmed and
cherished To his own undoing.
Five minutes passed-dreadful min
utcs, that seemed like hours. Nothing
was as yet stirring forward; not man
was to be seen. Crawford and the
Captain grasped each his revolver; the
mate had heavy capstan-bar, which
he had kept handy since the anchor
was weighed. 1t was his pistol that
Crawford had.
The situation was one to require no
words, and hardly to allow of words.
They realized that desperate death
grapple was at hand. Each quietly
stood and nerved himself for Il.
Probably the same anxious question
occurred 10 each Of them. They were
